World’s largest air purifier makes debut in China

The world’s largest air purifier, designed for now as an environmentally-conscious experiment and art installation, has made its debut in Beijing, China. Created by Dutch artist Daan Roosegaarde, the seven meter tall air purifying tower treats 30,000 cubic meters every hour. It collects more than 75 percent of PM2.5 and PM10 smog particles and then recirculates the purified air creating a 360-degree “bubble”. But the tower is only one part of Roosegaarde’s Smog Free Project. Roosegaarde’s plan is to collect smog particles from the tower and compress them into Smog Free Jewellery, which he hopes will attract more attention. What are the top stories today?
